Thematization is the Sincerest Form

After going bunjee jumping sometime around 1997, I had an idea for a company, "Manhattan Muggings" where thrillseekers would be given a bullet-proof vest and experience a faux mugging. And I guess by now NY has let its brand association with muggings lapse. Anyway, when I actually saw someone had started such a company a few years ago I was pretty pissed.

But, much better is this theme park in Mexico which allows you to pretend you are crossing the US-Mexico border illegally at night.
